Website names Pitt-Bradford to list of best regional campuses

College research website TheBest Colleges has called Pitt-Bradford one of 10
regional campuses in the United States with an impressive reputation of its
own.

The list placed Pitt-Bradford eighth
and also included Carnegie Mellon University, Silicon Valley; Penn State Erie,
The Behrend College; University of Michigan-Flint; University of Texas Medical
School at Houston; Texas A&M University at Galveston; Tufts European
Center; Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis; Idaho State
University-Meridian; and Colorado State University-Global Campus.

“Students come for [Pitt-Bradford’s]
reputation as a place they can get the quality of the Pittsburgh flagship
without getting lost among nearly 30,000 students,” the blogger wrote, also
citing Pitt-Bradford’s naming to the 2012 Princeton Review’s “Best Value
Colleges,” a list of the 150 best value colleges nationwide.

The author also drew on reviews from
the website College Confidential, writing that “professors are considered
students’ friends, going above and beyond to facilitate learning by extending
office hours, giving out their private cell phone numbers and more.”
